VISUAL ARTS
Changing times

Dramatic transitions marked the Twin Cities visual-arts scene in 2005 as museums and galleries opened or closed, and key staff members arrived or departed.

The year's most memorable gallery shows were: Lauren Greenfield's tough "Girl Culture" at Minnesota Center for Photography, Doug Padilla's exuberant paintings at Gallery Co., and Siah Armajani's poignant sculpture and drawings at Weinstein Gallery (through Jan. 7).
